The Chief Psychiatrist and Medical Director of the Accra Psychiatric Hospital, Dr. Akwasi Osei, says Charles Antwi, the man who confessed to plotting to assassinate President Mahama, will be sent back to the court in about a month.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”U9ADjsK0oiFopm0Kowo4s1g0QXkUgZZa”]Charles Antwi was arrested in July 2015 for wielding a loaded pistol at the Ringway Gospel Centre branch of the Assemblies of God Church in Accra where President Mahama worships.<\/p>\n
He was hurriedly sentenced to ten years imprisonment in a trial that was largely condemned. He was subsequently released after renowned Human Rights Lawyer , Francis Xavier Sou, came to his rescue.<\/p>\n
An Accra High Court ordered his referral to the psychiatric\u00a0hospital for treatment after it quashed a judgment by a Circuit Court sentencing him to ten years in prison.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Citi News<\/strong>, Dr. Akwasi Osei who said Mr. Antwi is in a relatively stable condition, added that\u00a0they will furnish the court with a detailed report after the Hospital completes its medical examination.<\/p>\n \u201cCharles Antwi is doing fine but he has not gotten to a place where we can let him go. We are hoping that in the next one month, he will be fit enough. We will not let him go, we will take him back to the court and the court can decide what to do.\u00a0He was unwell; it is part of his illness that made him feel so big and so grand that he thought he was supposed to be President.\u201d<\/p>\n
